HE  LAYTON  ART  GALLERY  WAS  ORGAN- 
ized  as  a  corporation  under  the  laws  of  the  State, 
by  articles  executed  March  1,  1888. 

The  purposes  of  the  corporation,  declared  in 
the  articles,  are  “maintaining,  regulating  and 


managing  a  public  art  gallery  in  the  City  of 


Milwaukee,  to  be  known  as  the  Layton  Art  Gallery,  and  taking 
and  holding,  managing  and  controlling  any  real  estate  or  other 
property  which  Frederick  Layton,  of  Milwaukee,  shall  convey 
and  give  to  such  corporation  for  the  purpose  of  providing  and 
maintaining  a  public  art  gallery  in  said  city,  and  also  any  other 
property  which  may  come  to  such  corporation  by  gift  01  giant, 
devise  or  bequest,  or  otherwise,  for  the  benefit  of  said  public  art 
gallery.” 

The  articles  provide  for  twelve  Trustees,  the  signers  of  the 
articles  to  be  the  first  Trustees  and  to  continue  for  life,  except  in 
cases  of  resignation  or  removal,  vacancies  by  death  or  otherwise 
to  be  filled  by  the  remaining  Trustees,  a  concurrence  of  a  major¬ 
ity  being  necessary  to  an  election.  The  articles  contain  a  pro¬ 
vision  also  that  in  case  of  neglect  or  failure  of  the  Trustees  to 
fill  any  vacancy  within  two  years,  the  Judge  of  the  Circuit 
Court  for  Milwaukee  County  shall  appoint. 

The  officers  of  the  corporation,  provided  by  the  articles,  are  a 
President,  a  Vice-President  and  a  Secretary,  and  in  addition  to 
the  officers,  the  articles  provide  for  three  Standing  Committees, 
each  composed  of  at  least  three  Trustees;  a  Committee  on 
Finance,  a  Committee  on  the  Building  and  a  Committee  on 
Works  of  Art. 

The  signers  of  the  articles  were :  Frederick  Layton,  Charles 
F.  Ilsley,  George  Dickens,  John  L.  Mitchell,  James  Clinton 
Spencer,  William  PI.  Metcalf,  Francis  B.  Keene,*  B.  K.  Miller,

LAYTON  COLLECTION. 


The  organization  of  the  corporation  was  completed  by  the 
election,  March  3,  188S,  of  Frederick  Layton,  President,  Charles 
F.  Ilsley,  Vice-President,  and  Jerome  R.  Brigham,  Secretary, 
and  by  the  appointment,  March  14,  1888,  of  Standing  Commit¬ 
tees,  as  follows :  On  Finance,  Messrs.  Ilsley,  Miller  and  Brig¬ 
ham  ;  on  The  Building,  Messrs.  Spencer,  Dickens  and  McLaren ; 
on  Works  of  Art,  Messrs.  Metcalf,  Mitchell  and  Keene. 

On  the  10th  day  of  March,  1888,  Mr.  Layton,  by  deed  of  him¬ 
self  and  wife,  conveyed  to  the  corporation  the  lots  at  the  north¬ 
east  corner  of  Jefferson  and  Mason  Streets,  on  which  he  had 
already  erected  the  Art  Gallery  Building,  in  which  had  been 
hung  the  paintings,  numbered  from  1  to  65  in  the  catalogue,  be¬ 
ing  gifts  by  himself  and  different  friends,  as  indicated  in  the 
catalogue. 

On  the  afternoon  of  Thursday,  April  5,  1888,  the  simple  cere¬ 
monies  of  the  formal  presentation  to  the  corporation  and  of  the 
opening  to  the  public  of  the  Gallery  were  had  in  the  new  build¬ 
ing,  and  were  attended  by  about  three  hundred  interested  spec¬ 
tators,  including  a  number  of  invited  guests  from  Chicago.  The 
Souvenir  of  the  opening,  prepared  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Keene,  and 
printed  for  distribution  at  the  time,  now  -very  scarce,  gives  a 
pleasant  account  of  the  affair.  It  contains  the  address  of  Mr. 
Layton  on  the  occasion,  which  is  reproduced  here,  giving  the 
facts  of  the  origin  of  the  Gallery  and  its  earliest  history,  not 
to  be  found  elsewhere.  The  abstract  of  the  deed  of  Mr.  Layton 
and  his  wife,  here  given,  is  taken  from  the  same  source  and  re¬ 
printed  because  of  its  interesting  detail  of  Mr.  Layton’s  gifts  to 
the  public  and  its  recital  of  his  purpose  and  plan  in  making 
them.  The  following  is  Mr.  Layton’s  address: 

“Ladies  and  Gentlemen  and  Fellow  Citizens:  Just  before  leav¬ 
ing  home  to  cross  the  Atlantic  in  June,  1884,  the  late  Alexander 
Mitchell  and  myself  were  invited  by  a  few  friends  to  a  dinner  party 
at  the  Milwaukee  Club,  and  after  dinner  I  was  called  upon  to  respond 
to  a  toast  to  my  health  and  safe  voyage.  In  replying  I  said,  among 
other  tilings,  that  I  had  thought  at  some  future  time  to  do  something 
in  regard  to  building  an  Art  Gallery  for  the  public,  in  our  city.  Yet 
on  that  occasion  1  had  no  idea  that  it  would  be  in  the  near  future. 
Newspaper  men,  however,  are  very  quick  to  find  out  what  has  been 
said.  I  was  called  on  the  next  day  by  a  reporter  of  one  of  our  news¬ 
papers,  to  know  how  soon  I  intended  to  commence  the  Art  Gallery. 
I  told  him  to  say  but  little  about  it,  since  the  whole  matter  was  yet 
but  an  intention.  Nevertheless  it  was  forthwith  spread  abroad  that  I 
was  going  to  build  an  Art  Gallery,  and  so  I  myself  began  to  think

about  it  as  something  soon  attainable.  On  my  voyage  across  the 
Atlantic  Mr.  I.  W.  Audsley  sat  next  to  me  at  table.  His  brother,  .  • 

iuXley  in  Liverpool,  now  of  London,  s  an  architect,  and  so  it  came 
about  quite  naturally  that  I  should  meet  him.  Mr.  AudsleJ  sh™e* 
me  some  very  beautiful  buildings  he  had  designed,  and  I  asked  hun  t 
draw  me  two  plans  for  a  Gallery-one  for  a  lot  60x120,  and  one  fo 
1-0x120.  I  liked  his  style  of  architecture  very  much,  but  did  not 
accept  either  of  the  plans,  as  they  were  two  stories  a^ve  tbe  grou  , 
and  the  Gallery  had  to  be  on  the  upper  floor  inordei  to  admit 
proper  light.  Later  on,  my  neighbor  on  board  ship  paid  me  . 

and  we  talked  over  the  situation  and  looked  over  the  gi'oun  ’  * 
asked:  Can  we  not  have  a  building  one  story  above  the  ^sement, 
about  80x100  feet,  in  the  center  of  our  ground  that  will  o  ' 

Mr.  Audsley  thought  he  could,  and  so  we  sketched  out  my  idea,  and  in 
due  time  received  the  design  for  our  present  building.  This  p  a 
accepted  with  the  understanding  that  Messrs.  E.  Townsend  ix  r  ■ 
should  work  jointly  with  him  in  carrying  out  his  design,  but  to  aria  0 
and  plan  certain  parts  of  the  building  as  they  thought  best. 

“Our  building  is  now  about  completed,  and  I  think  I  may  say  w 
have  one  of  the  most  beautiful  Art  Galleries,  of  its  size,  on  this  side 
of  the  Atlantic.  No  money  or  labor  has  been  spared  to  make  it  as  near 
fire-proof  as  possible;  the  walls  are  twice  the  thickness  of  ordinal y 
walls,  and  will  stand  for  ages.  The  ground  on  which  it  is  built  is  a 
well-known  landmark,  where  our  first  Episcopal  Church,  o  d  S  .  au  , 
stood  for  many  years.  This  site  (120x120  feet)  was  offered  to  me  for 
the  Gallery  and  bought  for  $25,000.  The  ground  and  building  with 
all  appliances,  have  cost  in  round  numbers  about  $115,000,  which  I 
have  deeded  to  the  Trustees  of  the  Gallery  for  the  public. 

“1  also  give  to  the  Gallery  thirty-eight  oil  paintings,  which  are  val¬ 
ued  at  $50,000,  with  $100,000  for  an  endowment  fund,  the  interest  to 
be  used  for  the  support  and  maintenance  of  the  building,  or,  if  any 
money  remains  after  paying  all  expenses,  it  shall  be  applied  to  the 
purchase  of  such  works  of  art  for,  the  Gallery  as  the  Trustees  may 
deem  best,  together  with  any  other  gifts  of  money  donated  by  our 
citizens  or  friends  of  the  Gallery. 

“Our  first  gift  to  the  Gallery  was  from  Mr.  John  Hargreaves,  ot 
Liverpool,  a  very  old  carved  oak  English  clock,  now  in  the  Trustees 
Room,  and  should  be  highly  prized  by  us.  Mr.  Hargreaves  paid  all 
charges  and  delivered  the  clock  free  to  us. 

“P  jx  Armour,  of  Chicago,  a  former  fellow  citizen,  did  not  forget 
us.  He  was  the  first  to  send  me  a  check  for  $5,000  for  the  Gallery. 
This  was  three  years  ago  last  October.  I  attended  the  Seney  sale  of 
paintings  in  New  York,  three  years  ago  this  spring,  and  bought  the 
Van  Marcke  picture  ‘La  Vanne’  for  $7,000;  and  I  felt  very  proud  to 
have  secured  it.  On  my  return  home  I  called  on  Mr.  Armour  and  told 
him  I  had  spent  his  $5,000  and  $2,000  more  with  it.  He  very  gener¬ 
ously  told  his  clerk  to  draw  me  a  check  for  $2,000,  and  has  since  told 
me  to  buy  another  picture  for  about  $2,000. 

“We  are  largely  indebted  to  Mr.  Samuel  Page,  of  Surbiton,  near 
London,  an  esteemed  friend  of  mine,  for  the  time  and  interest  he  has 


8 


LAYTON  COLLECTION. 


taken  in  helping  me  to  secure  paintings  I  bought  in  England.  He  has 
also  donated  to  the  Gallery  a  very  beautiful  painting. 

“Other  friends  outside  of  our  city  have  donated  pictures  to  the 
Gallery,  namely,  John  Cudahy  and  Wm.  Kirkwood,  of  Chicago,  and 
some  of  our  fellow  citizens  have  also  given  paintings  and  money  to 
buy  such  paintings  as  I  might  deem  best.  These  are  now  in  the 
Gallery,  except  Guido  Pfister’s  gift  of  $1,000,  not  yet  expended,  his 
painting  having  not  yet  been  selected. 

I  trust  other  donations  will  continue  to  come  forward  from  our 
citizens,  and  others  who  can  well  afford  it,  and  that  the  Gallery,  as 
time  goes  on,  will  be  filled  with  none  but  choice  works  of  art  in 
paintings  and  sculpture  from  the  best  masters. 

We  open  our  Gallery  without  a  single  piece  of  statuary  in  the 
beautiful  room  intended  therefor  ;  but  I  trust  some  of  our  citizens,  who 
can  well  afford  it,  will  donate  a  good  round  sum  for  several  pieces  of 
fine  marble  sculpture  from  the  best  sculptors,  and  that  the  subjects  may 
be  well  chosen. 

“It  is  going  on  four  years  since  the  inception  of  the  plan,  and  I 
have  done  my  very  best,  from  the  commencement,  to  build  a  beautiful 
structure,  such  as  should  stand  for  ages  to  come,  and  to  open  it  with  a 
good,  though  small,  collection  of  paintings  by  well-known  artists  ;  and 
I  trust  the  standard  will  not  be  lowered  In  the  future,  but  rather  be 
raised.  My  gift  to  the  public  will,  I  trust,  be  of  benefit  to  our  working 
people,  as  well  as  to  the  more  wealthy,  since  all  may  come  and  find 
pleasure  and  recreation  in  paying  a  visit  to  the  Gallery.  It  will  be 
open  to  the  public,  free  of  charge,  three  days  in  the  week,  and  only  a 
small  fee  of  admittance  will  be  charged  two  days  in  the  week  to  help 
pay,  in  a  slight  degree,  the  Gallery’s  running  expenses.  On  these  two 
days  artists,  under  certain  regulations,  will  be  allowed  to  copy  paint¬ 
ings,  free  of  charge. 

With  God’s  will  I  trust  that  which  He  has  enabled  me  to  do  may 
prove  a  lasting  benefit  and  pleasure  to  the  public. 

“I  now  wish  to  deliver  to  the  Trustees  of  the  Layton  Art  Gallery 
the  deed  of  the  property  and  building,  my  gift  of  oil  paintings,  and  a 
check  on  Messrs.  Marshall  &  iisley’s  bank  for  $100,000.  The  Rev.  Dr. 
Keene,  on  behalf  of  the  Trustees,  please  accept  my  gift. 

“The  Gallery  will  be  open  free  to  the  public  this  week,  to-morrow 
and  Saturday,  from  nine  in  the  morning  till  four  in  the  afternoon.” 

The  following  are  the  recitals  of  the  deed  of  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Layton,  presented  to  the  Trustees  on  that  occasion,  omitting 
the  formal  language  of  conveyance : 

“Whereas,  in  pursuance  of  a  cherished  plan  to  devote  to  the  benefit 
of  the  City  of  Milwaukee,  and  the  public,  some  of  the  property  which 
he  has  acquired  in  business,  carried  on  in  said  city,  the  said  Frederick 
Layton  has  recently  erected  a  building  intended  for  an  Art  Gallery,  on 
lots  seven  (7)  and  eight  (8),  in  block  twenty-one  (21),  in  the  Seventh 
Ward  of  said  city,  and  has  placed  therein  a  number  of  paintings  which 
he  thinks  will  be  valuable  for  the  instruction  and  gratification  of  the 
public,  ana  has  also  placed  therein  other  paintings  and  works  of  art, 
presented  by  other  persons,  to  be  placed  in  the  gallery  for  the  same 
purpose;  and,

“ Whereas ,  the  party  of  the  second  part  has  been  created  and  organ¬ 
ized  as  a  corporation  under  the  laws  of  the  State,  for  the  purpose  of 
maintaining,  regulating  anu  managing  a  public  Art  Gallery  in  the 
City  of  Milwaukee,  to  be  known  as  the  Layton  Art  Gallery,  and  of 
taking  and  holding,  managing  and  controlling  any  real  estate  or  other 
property,  which  Frederick  Layton,  of  Milwaukee,  shall  convey  and 
give  to  the  corporation,  for  the  purpose  of  providing  and  maintaining 
a  public  Art  Gallery  in  the  City  of  Milwaukee,  and  also  any  other  prop¬ 
erty  which  may  come  to  such  corporation  by  gift  or  grant,  devise  or 
bequest,  or  otherwise,  for  the  benefit  of  such  Art  Gallery  ;  and, 

“ whereas ,  said  Frederick  Layton  believes  that  by  placing  the  Ga  - 
lery  and  its  contents  in  the  hands  of  the  corporation,  his  object  of 
providing  an  Art  Gallery  in  the  City  of  Milwaukee,  for  the  public, 
which  shall  be  and  remain  a  means  of  creating  and  encouraging  among 
its  people,  a  taste  for  the  fine  arts,  and  affording  high  and  improving 
gratification  to  all  by  the  constant  exhibition  of  choice  works  of  art 


therein  ;  and, 

“Whereas,  the  wife  of  said  Frederick  Layton  is  in  full  sympathy 
with  this  plan  of  her  husband.” 

(Here  follows  the  formal  phraseology  of  grants  and  war¬ 
rants  of  title  conveying  the  lots  with  the  building  to  the  cor¬ 
poration  for  the  purpose  of  a  public  Art  Gallery.) 

The  deed  contains  also  a  statement  of  the  wishes  and  pur¬ 
poses  of  Mr.  Layton,  as  follows : 

“While  leaving  the  details  of  the  management  and  control  of  the 
property  hereby  conveyed  for  an  Art  Gallery  to  the  judgment  and  dis¬ 
cretion  of  the  Trustees  of  the  party  of  the  second  part,  the  parties'  of 
the  first  part  herein  indicate,  in  a  general  way,  the  wishes  and  plan  of 
Mr.  Layton  in  reference  to  the  same. 

“1  It  is  his  wish  that  the  Gallery  shall  receive  and  keep  for  public 
inspection,  under  such  regulations  as  the  Trustees  of  the  corporation 
may  adopt,  to  secure  the  safety  of  the  property  and  the  convenience  of 
the  public,  in  addition  to  paintings  and  other  works  of  art  now 
in  the  Gallery,  paintings  and  other  works  of  art  which  may 
be  hereafter  given  or  bequeathed  for  that  purpose,  but  that  in  all  cases 
a  careful  judgment  be  exercised  that  only  such  paintings  and  other 
works  of  art  as  are  of  high  order  of  merit  and  calculated  to  elevate 
and  Instruct  the  public  taste,  be  received,  and  that  any  which,  in  the 
judgment  of  the  Trustees,  or  of  a  proper  committee  of  the  Trustees, 
are  not  of  such  merit,  be  declined  and  not  received. 

“2.  It  is  his  wish  that,  subject  to  proper  rules  and  restrictions,  to 
be  adopted  by  the  Trustees  of  the  corporation,  the  paintings  and  other 
works  of  art  in  the  Gallery  be  open  to  public  inspection  without  any 
charge  for  admission,  at  proper  and  convenient  hours,  on  not  less  than 
three  days  in  each  week,  and  that,  on  not  exceeding  two  days  in  each 
week,  a  small  charge  for  admission  to  the  Gallery  be  made,  the  moneys 
so  received  to  be  applied  to  the  care  and  maintenance  of  the  property. 

“3.  It  is  his  wish  that  upon  two  days  in  each  week,  proper  facili¬ 
ties  be  afforded  to  art  students,  under  such  regulations  and  restrictions 


10 


LAYTON  COLLECTION. 


as  the  Trustees  may  deem  best,  to  study  and  copy  any  painting  in  the 
Gallery. 

“4.  Together  with  this  convenience,  Mr.  Layton  gives  to  the  corpo¬ 
ration  $100,000,  for  a  permanent  endowment  fund,  the  annual  income 
of  which  may  furnish  the  means  of  meeting  the  necessary  expenses  of 
the  care  and  management  of  the  Gallery,  and  of  maintaining  and  keep¬ 
ing  the  building  and  property  always  in  good  order  and  condition,  and 
it  is  his  wish  that,  if  at  any  time,  in  the  judgment  of  the  Trustees,  any 
part  of  such  incomei  is  not  required  for  such  care  and  maintenance, 
and  may  be  safely  used  for  other  purposes,  such  excess  be  set  apart 
to  be  used  as  a  fund  for  the  purchase  by  the  corporation,  from  time  to 
time,  of  such  works  of  art  as  the  Trustees  shall  determine  to  add  to 
the  collection  in  the  Gallery,  and  that  the  corporation  also  make 
additions  to  the  collection  by  purchase,  when  it  is  able  to  do  so,  by 
funds  provided  from  any  other  source.” 

At  the  session  of  the  Legislature  in  1889,  an  act  was  passed 
“Exempting  from  taxation  all  real  and  personal  property  of  any 
public  Art  Gallery,  or  of  any  corporation  created  without  capi¬ 
tal  stock,  for  the  sole  purpose  of  maintaining,  regulating  and 
managing  a  public  Art  Gallery,  provided  the  public  shall  have 
access  to  such  Art  Gallery,  free  of  charge,  not  less  than  three 
days  in  each  week.”  This  general  act,  so  phrased  as  to  apply 
to  the  Layton  Art  Gallery,  was  procured  to  be  passed  by  the 
Trustees,  and  under  its  provisions  the  corporation  property 
has  been  exempt  from  taxation. 

According  to  the  By-laws  as  originally  made,  the  Gallery 
was  opened  to  the  public,  without  charge,  three  days  in  each 
week,  and  two  days  an  admission  fee  of  twenty-five  cents  was 
charged.  It  was  not  open  on  Sunday.  Later  the  usefulness  and 
convenience  of  opening  the  Gallery  at  least  a  part  of  the  day 
on  Sunday,  was  urged  in  the  public  press  and  otherwise,  with 
such  effect  that  at  a  special  meeting  of  the  Trustees,  held 
November  2,  1891,  called  by  the  President  for  the  purpose  of 
determining  the  question  of  opening  the  Gallery  on  Sundays, 
after  full  consideration,  a  resolution  was  adopted  that  the  Gal¬ 
lery  be  opened  to  the  public,  without  charge  for  admission,  on 
the  afternoons  of  Sunday,  for  the  period  of  one  year,  the  pur¬ 
pose  being  to  determine,  by  trial,  the  usefulness  and  conveni¬ 
ence  of  the  change.  The  result  has  been  that  the  Gallery  has 
continued  to  be  open  on  Sunday  afternoons  ever  since,  and  it 
does  not  seem  likely  that  the  practice  will  be  changed. 

The  Catalogue  shows  the  additions  to  the  Gallery’s  collection 
since  the  opening.  At  that  time  the  Gallery  was  possessed  of

the  paintings  numbered  in  the  Catalogue  from  1  to  and  in¬ 
cluding  65.  All  the  statuary  and  the  paintings,  bearing  higher 
numbers  than  65,  have  been  since  acquired,  either  by  gift  oi  by 
purchase,  as  is  indicated  in  the  Catalogue. 

The  endowment  gift  has  been  kept  invested  under  the  direc¬ 
tion  of  the  proper  committee,  and  up  to  August,  1897,  thqre  has 
been  expended,  out  of  the  income,  in  addition  to  the  Gallery, 
the  sum  of  about  $21,945  in  the  purchase  of  paintings  for  the 
Gallery.  Tlje  paintings  which  have  been  so  purchased  with  in¬ 
come  of  the  endowment  gift  are  the  following :  '

known  as  the  People’s  Fund,  aided  by  individual  contribution  , ,

The  Last  of  the  Spartans. 
Marble. 


The  Artist,  here  symbolizes  the  courage  and  self-sacrifice  of  the 
Spartans,  an  ancient  Greek  people,  who  resisted  invasion  at  the  pass  of 
Thermopylae. 

The  Spartan  law  bade  each  soldier  return  home  either  with  his 
shield, _  or  on  it,  that  being  their  emblem  of  honor. 

This  one,  the  last  of  the  three  hundred,  fatally  wounded,  throws 
himself  upon  his  shield,  and  with  bloody  hand  writes  thereon,  “Nikat”, 
meaning,  I  conquer.  A  moral  victory  in  death  over  defeat.
